well I would love to have that setup on my rig so I did a little research,

there are two versions available for canon, used on the higher end cameras:

THE FU - 1000 :

and the older version :

FU - 500

theres already a THREAD here discussing this:

and apparently the plug is propietery for canon so you couldn't just go to radioshack and buy an adapter for it to work, you would have to get it from canon, or find a way to
create your own.

and theres the problem that unless you have a good adapter that flips the image you you would have to flip the lens viewfinder upside down to correct the image (which would flip it vertically, but not horizontally, making it hard to follow a moving shot. and the only way i see possible of doing this is to mount it so its on the right side of the camera (a little awkward for me)

then theres the problem of powering the unit, you would have to use an external power supply, found more information here:

THE FU-1000 may no fit for me,it is too expensive,it cost US $3700!!!
the fu-500 is so good~but i can`t find where to buy it in asia ~i found a guy have sold it for US $217 in HK ,it is too late for me to find his store

another porblem is how can i link the FU-500 to HV20?? useing another Device??
